Brian Coogan – Protect Your Website

Is your website safe?

Recently, I had my Book Rapper website hacked. I was fortunate that they didn’t deface my site they merely made some small back door entries into my site files.

Whilst I was completely oblivious to this, I received a call from my trusty web hosting company to tell me about the problem and reduce the impact of a potential future disaster for you and your customers.

This experience has prompted this podcast episode with my website host to warn you of the potential dangers and what you can do to protect yourself in the future.

Today, we talk with Brian Coogan. He is the Managing Director of WD3, formerly known as White Dog Green Frog. WD3 are a specialist website hosting company based in Melbourne and they have a strong focus on website security. Brian also teaches online security classes to the Defence forces.
